(前言)16天的军训过后,上课的前一天,在宿舍突然想起应该打电话给奶奶。她是豪放的农村妇女,说话一直嗓门很大,从开头听到是我不禁笑出声来,中间不断叮嘱我注意安全,保护自己,到最后念叨我要多打电话给父母,她的话偶尔想起来打给她她就很开心了,一直用的是大嗓门,有力地、直白地显示着她对我的疼爱。打完电话,第一次离家上学的我,面试被拒了好几次都没哭的我,第一次想哭。
Everytime I call my granny,
每当我当电话给奶奶,
I know I am loved deeply.

When she couldn`t help laughing

When she urged again and again
